Lu Yulan was widely known as a green tea, white lotus bitch. Relying on her status as an orphan, she blackmailed her way into marrying General Lu of the Empire. Even after the divorce, she maintain...
She was just playing a game, and when she woke up, everyone on the planet was nowhere to be found.
They fastened their weapons and prepared to go find Xiao Wu and the regimental commander.
Hearing a rustling sound, he immediately hid warily.
Then I heard two people talking.
"Is it not a good idea for us to come in? What if someone is home?"
"What are you afraid of? There are only two of us. I've checked it out. There's only one girl in this family. Now the whole planet is like this. I think she's quite rich. Let's grab something and leave. Otherwise, it'll be a waste."
"Too."
Qiu Bai understood from these words that these were two thieves.
Judging from the glimpses of their bodies, neither of them appeared to be more than thirty years old; their timid and hesitant demeanor certainly resembled that of thieves.
While the two of them were searching the house separately, they put things away one by one.
Then they found a rope and tied it up.
A basin of water was poured over it.
Qiu Bai sat on the sofa, looking at the two of them. "Awake?"
The two men looked at the ropes binding them and struggled to break free.
Qiu Bai poured himself a cup of hot water and slowly drank it. "Don't struggle. I'm using the military's method of imprisoning prisoners. You two can't untie me."
As he spoke, he turned his spear towards the two men's heads.
"Tell me, why did you come to my house?"
"If you're lying, don't blame me for being ruthless. I've killed quite a few insects myself."
The thief took Qiu Bai's words as a threat and turned pale.
“I told you, we just came to steal some things since no one was home. After all, this place is completely abandoned, so there’s no point in keeping it if we don’t steal it.”
Why was it abandoned?
The thief's face turned even paler. "A few days ago, for some reason, a lot of strange plants grew here. They would kill anyone they saw, and some of them were completely invisible."
"As you know, this area was originally unmanaged, and many people simply fled to escape. Those who stayed behind tried to fight against the plants, but they all perished in the end."
Qiu Bai immediately sensed that the two were lying, talking nonsense, and spouting rubbish.
But when I contacted Xiao Wu and the others, they couldn't find them.
Pushing open the window, I was greeted by a strong smell of pollen, mixed with various strange and unidentified odors.
This place was originally a plant planet, with abundant plants, but now, the area outside is desolate.
There was nothing there; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the land was covered in yellow sand.
Why aren't you two leaving?
The thieves exchanged a glance, and when they saw Qiu Bai pick up the spearhead from the table again, they immediately spoke.
"Because those plants ran away."
"We want to find something valuable before we run away."
Qiu Bai didn't believe a single word they said, but it was true that the area was deserted.
"Come out with me."
The thief's face turned pale. "I'll die."
"When you were stealing, you weren't afraid of dying, but you survived until the end, and now you're afraid of dying!"
The two lowered their eyes; they didn't want to stay until the end, since they had neither money nor a spaceship.
Life here is simple, but it's not easy to make money, especially since everyone here is capable. What can two thieves do?
"If you don't leave, you'll die."
The three of them left the room. The dim sunlight indicated that it was evening, but Qiu Bai's wrist monitor showed that it was seven o'clock in the morning.
The weather is incredibly strange.
Seeing Qiu Bai looking at the sunlight, the thief started speaking again, "Ever since those plants appeared, the sunlight has become like this."
“Look around, it’s barren. Those plants are tyrannical and even kill people. We won’t steal next time, please let us go.”
"no."
Qiu Bai tried to contact Xiao Wu again, but still couldn't reach her, although she had a spaceship.
